Before I order some I wanted to see if anyone has any OME caster correction bushings for sale.

my 94 came with an extra set of arms with bushings already pressed, but it rides just fine w/o the corrections and im kinda afraid to mess with a good thing....
i dont know what they are worth if anyone wants to fill me in i might consider a sell/trade....

Eric, didn't I buy some from you not long ago?
Depending on how long from now you'll need them... I may no longer need my entire arms with bushings closer to the end of summer.

Hmmm, Eric needs bushings, Zack has bushings. Zack likes good beer, Eric makes good beer...

Zac,
Do you know what degree correction the bushings are? Pm me what you want for them. I don't have a lot to trade that's not in a liquid form.

I'll take some pictures of them tonight. I dont know degree they are. I don't have any idea what they are worth. I would assume the arms are worth more than the bushings???

Yes you did and I would love to get them back, but I need them soon. My driver's side bushing is gone and I can feel it shifting.

You would need to press them out and redo them anyway, as i pressed them in at more castor than they should be :redneck-engineering:
I'm going to need them for another month at the least though.

Are the bushings a color other than black? why did the previous owner have an extra set?
maybe, maybe not. They would be more expensive new but they don't really break or bend so most people don't need them. I am sure eric would be glad to give you his arms in the trade, which are actually my old arms. We swapped arms so he could have my caster corrected arms and I went with plates. So I feel partly responsible for his failed bushing.

one of the reasons i havnt installed them is because i would actually rather have plates
did you make yours or buy them?
i cant even find a set of bushings to see what they cost, i can only find them packaged with the OME lift kits....
i found some MAF bushings that are over a hundred bucks but that seems pretty high to me...
i wouldnt need another set of arms...
some one throw a number at me so i can get an idea what we are talking about...
ill be working at the pool today but you can give me a call if i dont answer ill get back to you, just leave a msg

Sorry I didn't see this post.
I am pretty sure they are yellow
I bought the trucks from Will's dad. Will of ACC toyota, when they installed the lift they just pressed bushings into a set of arms they had. When the truck didn't seem to have any pull or wobbling or any driving issues I guess they felt the same way I do now if it ain't broke don't mess with it. But they sent the arms with me when I bought the truck in case I wanted them.
I'll take pics tonight when I get home.

Texted this to you but in case you don't get picture msgs....
ACC did NOT do the lift. I did. I had a spare set of arms. I pressed the bushings into them and dad came into town and picked up the truck before I had time to install the arms. If dad woulda kept the truck then I woulda put them in. They should be used, if they werent needed they wouldnt sell them.

sorry Will I should have clarified that I meant you and your dad didnt put the arms on, I didnt mean that ACC didnt do it.
like I said truck is so perfect just as it is I am afraid to change anything...
well except for a few little things
for a cruiser nearing 240k miles I couldnt ask for a better more reliable vehicle and I know it is in the shape it is in today because of care and work done before she was mine. When the time for a major repair comes Ill be going to ACC. So far though All I have had to do to this 94 cruiser is add gas and change the oil.
Eric it was good to see you again, I hope those bushings & arms work out for you. I'll have you 24 empty bottles soon enough just get on Matt to put together a meeting/install party and Ill come up to B-ham

Glad to see it went to such a good home.
Y'all put together an ACC calendar I'll send you ms. October.
